Rare corpse flower bloom brings Californians for a quick sniff of ‘rotting flesh’


San Marino (United States) (AFP) – Visitors flock to the Huntington Botanical Garden in California to watch and smell the ephemeral blooming of a corpse flower, which smells of “rotting flesh” according to gardener Bryce Dunn. “It’s more like a dumpster in a big city where you walk by and smell the garbage. It’s good… if you like it,” says a visitor.
